Why the World Needs NGOs Now More Than Ever Humanitarian aid is dominating news headlines in 2025 — but what’s really going on with NGOs? Are they more vital than ever before? #WhatstheStory explains. Join us as we unpack the evolving role of NGOs (Non-Governmental Organisations) in a world facing unprecedented crises: climate catastrophe, escalating conflict, economic instability, mass displacement, and rising poverty. With global humanitarian needs skyrocketing to record levels, we ask: Are international aid organisations still effective in today’s fast-changing world? In this eye-opening explainer, we dive into the impact NGOs have had throughout history and their role in tackling today’s most urgent challenges, from climate change and hunger to global health crises, refugee support, and human rights. On the front lines of disaster relief and long-term development, NGOs work tirelessly to save lives, empower communities and support the world’s most vulnerable people, often stepping in to fill the gaps where governments fall short. Featuring real stories from frontline humanitarian workers, hard-hitting statistics and expert insights, this video breaks down why humanitarian needs are growing faster than ever and explores the tough realities of donor fatigue, funding cuts and misinformation facing aid agencies today. Watch now to discover: 00:00 - What NGOs really do and why they matter 00:55 - A brief history of humanitarian aid, from the Irish Famine to modern day 01:51 - Eye-opening stats on how NGOs have saved lives and changed the world 03:09 - Why crises are worsening in 2025: climate, COVID aftershocks & conflict 05:29 - The funding crisis threatening global aid efforts 07:23 – Irish support for international aid and how you can help. 🔔 Like, Subscribe & Share to stay informed and take action. 👇 Comment below: Do you think NGOs are more important than ever?
